The gab page is a wonderful idea. It is a great way to reconnect with friends from the Pecos area.

I would have graduated with the Class of 1960. My name was Wadonna Williams and I lived in Mentone and commuted to Pecos for school. I have lost touch with almost all members of my class and would love to reconnect with them.

I now live in Odessa and still have family living in Mentone. I would appreciate any information on classmates in the late 50's and early 60's.

My E-Mail address is GROOMERETC@aol.com

Thanks again for this wonderful idea.

Hello exes, This is Danny Fleming from the class of 72. I'm still here in Pecos and I'm glad for the chance to find out about all the people who moved on to other things. For the members of my class, friends, and families there is now a "Class of 72" website. The URL is: http://www.visualcities.com/PHS1972 .

This is a starting place and I hope to add much more. We hope to begin updating our mailing list for the year 2002. I can't believe that it has been almost 30 years since we left old PHS. I look forward to hearing from you.

Later,

Danny Fleming

This is so exciting! Congratulations to whomever thought of this way of reconnecting & remembering Pecos life.

I graduated in 1959 and have lost touch with everyone. My name was Patsy Herring (Powell, now) and I attended school in Pecos from the 4th grade through graduation. I actually lived in Mentone and commuted into Pecos.

I've not been able to attend any reunions but have returned to Pecos many times. My husband teases me that I have to return to Pecos & Mentone every couple of years to "rejuvenate my batteries". It's true!!

I have lived in the Fort Worth area for the past 28 years. If there's anyone else from my class who would like to reconnect, please contact me. My E-mail address is p3pals@swbell.net.

This is such fun!!

Unbelievable but true if the calendar is correct. There are plans for a June celebration in Pecos. Eddie Daniel will be sending the class members and friends a letter in March with all the details and you will be asked to respond. We hope a number of '49ers and others can attend.

It will be fun to see you-all again. It looks as if it will be a very informal celebration. If you have questions, email me and I will get the answers from Eddie.

Hi Pecos! It's great to find this site. Thanks to friends who clued me in.

The Class of 1967 (notice, I'm a little hesitant to just use two digits...) had a great time a few years ago at our 30th reunion. This page gives us all a chance to keep up with Pecos news.

Julie and I are closer to Pecos now, but still a long ways off. Following our departure form Pecos in 1976, we were in Plano (76-77), Nacogdoches (77-78), Houston (78-95), and now Austin (95-present). Our two kids are in Houston, one working for Grassroots, and one attending U of H. Jenni is 24 and Jody (son) is 20. Jenni said to tell you to call 1-800-578-3278 if you need music by Christian indendent artists. Grassroots distributes music solely to stores, not indivivuals.

I have spent several years in Christian schools, with responsibilities ranging from coaching and teaching to top administration. In July, I resigned as head school at Great Hills Christian School in Austin, and am now coaching and teaching in Leander, just northwest of Round Rock. We are at 3206 Freemont, Round Rock, Tx 78681-3844 and our home phone is 512-246-8411. Of course, you can get my email off this site.

We would love to hear from you! I would also be in interested in knowing more about Dennis Davis and Joe McCormick!

Here's a long shot! Do any of you have any old ties in Monahans. I am trying to locate a former college roomate, Russell Tate. He graduated in 1967, and his dad was assistant principal for a while. His high school girl friend was named Becky, and in the last 30 years, I've lost touch with all of them?

Do you know of a Monahans site similar to this one?

Just learned about the pecos net news and have enjoyed my visit. I was in grade school & jr. high with the class of '57 but actually left Pecos after the 8th. grade to attend a private school. Just home for the holidays after that. The 57 class is always so gracious to invite me to their reunions. What a treat! I keep in touch with many of them through Email. Several of us have been trying to figgure out what happened to the funeral home and a couple of houses. Seems to me that Mrs. Lilly's house is gone and maybe the Love house? Some of you who have been around for awhile can probably solve this mystery.

Thanks for the opportunity to reconnect.

Gab page is a great idea! I graduated in '82 and was wondering if anyone knows what Anabel Lujan is up to this days. I lost touch of her after our 10 year reunion.

Hi:

Congratulations on an innovative way to help PHS exes re-establish contact.

The class of 1969 is getting together July 2 & 3, 1999, for its 30-year reunion. If anyone from that class reaches this message and wants information about the reunion, feel free to contact me by email, or to check out our class website:
http://www.seark.net/~quackup/reunion.html

Have noticed a couple of references to the need for a chat room. You'll find one at our website; scheduled chats are on Saturdays and Sundays at 8:00 pm (Central). We welcome the participation of other PHS exes.
